The press center stressed: "Today, July 16, another illegal "humanitarian convoy" arrived to Ukraine from Russia. Russian lying-propagandist media report it brought food and medicine. For our part, we should remind of the consequences of such "handouts" from Russia. In particular, the military activity of armed groups and the number of attacks at the Ukrainian military positions is increasing. The number of heavy caliber shellings of peaceful settlements is considerably growing. These are non-humanitarian consequences of the "humanitarian convoy".

"As reported yesterday, July 15, the militants brought additional heavy artillery to their positions, prohibited by the Minsk agreements. Pro-Russian murderers may be waiting for the "humanitarian" cargo, meant for artillery, to arrive at the demarcation line. Despite all this, the Ukrainian military firmly hold defensive positions being ready for any course of events," the press center sums up.
